  1. Add a monitoring that always shows the current primary

    When there's an election and the primary changes, it's hard to get a good view on how does the primary functions in a macro fashion.
    Please add a monitoring column (or an equivalent solution) that can show the monitoring information for the primary at the time, so I could look at the past month or so, and see how does the primary performed, even if it was a different server every time.

    This will make it much easier to understand various actions we take like changing indexes, improving queries, upgrading the database version, upgrading the driver, etc.

  2. For creating indexes, show a list of fields, so as to easily select and add field that needs indexing.

    While creating indexes using MDB atlas, there is no option to select from a list the fields that we want to add for indexing. For ease of use, this functionality must be added to Atlas GUI.

  3. Add editable description to a snapshot

    After an incident I may single out a snapshot and decide it is important. At this point I am able to change the retention policy to keep it for a longer time.

    It would be useful to also be able to add a note or a description to that snapshot so that I may tell future me why that snapshot was important and what incident it is tied to.

  4. Extend sub-hourly metrics retention to 72 hours

    Right now the 1- and 5-minute metric data is lost after 48 hours (when it is combined into the hourly data). This makes it impossible to take a close look, on a weekday, at an event that occurred over the weekend.

    It would be nice to be able to look at a problem on the weekend and say "I'll look at this more closely on Monday", and then have the ability to actually investigate it on Monday.

  5. Make collections scrollable

    We have databases with many collections. The problem with that is that in order to select certain collection, I have to scroll the results part of the page. So I'm going up and down all the time I select another collection and make some query.

    In sum, please add scroll in the collection explorer UI.

    Regards

  6. Increase maximum storage size for M60 servers

    Currently the maximum storage size allowed for an M60 tier is 4TB. Our cluster is approaching this size, and we're facing having to shard our data, which we would really prefer not to do.

    I understand that the maximum sizes are selected for performance reasons, but not every cluster is the same - ours is doing just fine and not struggling at all at this data size, and we would like to be able to continue to grow over time.

  7. Ability to add multiple IP's to the whitelist and download the current whitelisted IP's

    If I want to add comma separated IP's it is not possible. We have to add each IP painfully from the UI. Please allow to add comma or semicolon separated IP's to be added at once.

    Also, why can't I download the current whitelisted IP's as a CSV or other file?

  8. invoice should show support costs under project and not organization

    We need the support costs (in our case Atlas Pro) to show up for each cluster under the project on the invoice. Right now, it shows up as a separate line item in a lump sum under the organization. It makes it difficult or impossible to properly bill the individual cost centers for support costs for their clusters.

    If those costs showed up next to the clusters within the project, it would be easy to say project1 goes to cost center 1, but now we have to do project 1 goes to cost center 1 plus some percentage of the…

  9. Ability to search for filter conditions in Atlas Alert builder

    It would be helpful to be able to search for a trigger condition in the Alert builder when creating/editing an alert.

    Currently, you need to scroll to find specific conditions, but the list is long so it can take some time to find the particular one needed.

  10. Shorter Temporary Durations for Network Access whitelist

    Hello,

    it would be nice if you could add options for temporary whitelist entries that are shorter than 6 hours. Often in our Team we find ourselves just needing to whitelist an ip for a short amount of time to look up some documents or fix a bug.
    For that case it would be nice to have additional shorter options like 3h, 1h, 30m, 15m.

    Thanks for taking a look

  11. Atlas alerts - include duration and date/time alert was closed

    currently alerts (sent to SLACK but probably other formats as well) reads this:

    Project: OS1

    Organization: SE Atlas

    CLOSED
    Host is down
    OS1-g-shard-18-05.bxxxxq.gcp.mongodb.net
    Created: 2020/06/11 03:44 BST

    Type: Mongos

    It would be helpful to also include:
    Closed: 2020/06/11 07:44 BST
    Duration: 1h 53m

    As the slack is usually set to each users timezone it creates a confusion when one is looking at how long issue lasted.
    This should be easy to implement and it would improve end user experience a lot.

    Same would be nice on Atlas 'closed alerts' tab - there seems to be no way currently to get…

  12. Migration Tutorial Video

    I did a live migration from mLab to Atlas quite recently. Although, the steps for migration were simple and easy to execute it took me alot of time to get over the fear of migrating without losing any data. A tutorial video of the entire process would have calmed my nerves and helped me take a lot less time in the process.

  13. Ability to create and update database triggers via API

    It would be really usefule to have the ability to create and update database triggers via the API. Currently, updates to triggers cannot be integrated into our testing and deployment process because the only way to update them is manually through the interface.

  14. Allow to create Dashboard

    Please provide feature to create a dashboard for metrics like CPU, memory consumption etc for a cluster or more than one cluster in single graphs like for cpu one graph, for memory one graph like that just like monitoring tools provide for example zabbix screens and dashboards, stackdriver dashboards, dynatrace dashboards.

    This is to have a glance on our entire architecture instead of checking each and every cluster every time. This will be particularly useful during load tests or business peak period where we need to check more than one cluster performance.

  15. Alerts change from time based pattern to include actual alert in subject

    So far we are receiving atlas alerts in time based manner which are difficult to undersatnd/analyze just by looking at email subject.

    We are expecting a model in which we want to Separate alerts for each instance instead of combining alerts on a single time frame and Changing email alert subject to include alert description. This will allows us to understand the alert by looking at email subject , combine/view all alerts in email client (for example outlook) , write some rules on them and analyze the alert timing pattern by sorting and group by alert description.

    For example,

    Present…

  16. Allow "Project Data Access Read Only" to retrieve restore links.

    Allow "Project Data Access Read Only" to retrieve restore links. Currently, to retrieve a restore link from an Atlas cluster you must be a Project Owner.

    In the current version to take the link to the snapshot we need to use Restore Jobs part of the API. Problem is that the same POST endpoint is used for the restore job which can do changes in the system and needs Owner level of the access and to generate link to the stream with the snapshot data. This second type of the job should not need so big access level as should…

  18. Terminate existing connections from IPs when removed from the whitelist

    When removing entries from an Atlas Project's IP whitelist, existing connections from those IPs are maintained, and thus those hosts can continue to perform operations until the connection times out. I'm aware such connections can be dropped by doing a Test Failover or pausing and unpausing the cluster, but in some scenarios this is not ideal if even possible. This also seems like a security gap: When access is revoked from a particular IP or CIDR block, any existing client connections originating from that IP or CIDR should be terminated and the hosts behind that IP or CIDR should be…
